Why changed all the Corp commanders all of a sudden?

@PanzerKiel I have a question, and a request. What is the function of an Inspector General in Pak Army? And can you please give your kind attention to the entirety of this thread?

@PanzerKiel I have a question, and a request. What is the function of an Inspector General in Pak Army?

Inspector General in Pak Army is generally a semi independent appointment.

In case of IG Arms who is a Lt Gen , he has under command DGs of all arms, such DG Inf, DG Artillery etc.... all Maj Gens.

IG Arms keeps on conducting objective and independent studies to continuously enhance the combat efficiency of all arms of Pak Army.

 

[S A L M A N.]

Lt Gen Asif Ghafoor for IG C & IT is a good choice since the general also spearheaded the techological transformation of ISPR.
Hopefully he will transform the PA's C4I infrastructure and bring it to another level.
@PanzerKiel does the IG C & IT lead the C4I directorate of the Army?
If it's not overly sensitive info, could you outline the basic organization of the C4I directorate in the army and the role of the IG C&IT?

 

[Hakikat ve Hikmet]

Hopefully, Pak Army would introduce more EW, drones etc. and possibly create an R&D, applications and training groups....
